So your saying Shiv did not do it?

this motor, I performed the actual tuning on the keyboard with the Autronic.

I also want to give mucho props to Ryan at RnR for putting out a turbo that makes more power with more boost. There seems to be no end in sight.

Congrats on the time, that's awesome.

"juicing up the maps" sure as hell sounds like tuning to me.

The ET is great but was the center differential destroyed or not? Can anything be done to strengthen the stock center diff?

I talked to Alex some more last night and there are a couple corrections I need to make.




The car has a ported throttle body.

Full interior w/Carbon hood, trunk.



Also the car a full daily driver. It acts just like it did before and can be driven everyday without any problems at all.


Also he says the car went throught the traps at around 7700-7800rpm. He then just stayed in it until 8500rpm. So that was my confusion with talking to him the 1st time.



I will try to get a slips up today, but we are super busy right now.

Re: RnR Racing 10.6 at 123mph (Fastest EVO 8 in the World)

On the 10.6 run the EVO went up against a Pro Stock V8. The guy was a shocked when this brand new EVO 8 pasted him half track. I was amazed that the car went that fast with such limited mods and only a few passes.

Congrats! I love it when a shining little 4 door sedan "tip toes" around the water box and stages like a parking place at the mall. I wish he had a child's seat in the back! After the tire burn by the V8, all you probably saw is that little EVO 8 shaking through the smoke; couldn't hear his radio above the roar of the Pro Stock car. Must have been a few muscle car owner's eyes rolling when that litte car passed him! Fun!

Just wondering if this run was backed up with a second run. Like any comp. you need to back up a run to make it offical. Incase of timing errors. Which in all honesty it seems there must be an error in timing or the car broke end track, or he lifted off throttle. Eigther was I would love to see it backed up. Just for the non believers

He will backing up the run in a couple weeks I am sure. The transfer case broke and that was the problem he had.


The owner is going to get a Quaife transfer case.

He is going to have one made for him. I think he is going to get some people together to do a buy.

Thanks for taking the time to clear it up. Nice run, can't wait to see what a full pass will do.
